Yoshi

My Son, Mr J asked for a Yoshi cake for his 10th birthday cake.  Just yoshi.  No other characters needed.  But I couldn't leave it at just Yoshi.  Mario has to be there, and so do those cool looking flower things (I now know they are called Piranah Flowers) and Goomba (even the boys didn't know what he was called!)

So after googling and printing so many pictures to work as a reference, I sat making characters until 1am one morning and 2am the next.  Bleary eyed the next day, I made baked a Chocolate Mud Cake with a Chocolate Fudge centre and covered it with tinted blue Betty Crocker icing (the only icing Mr J likes).

Mr J was so impressed with Yoshi, that he asked to keep it.  And even though he wanted only a Yoshi cake, his favourite little detail was Toad.  (It was mine too!)
